Nia, Keith and Geoff present Chief Fire Officer Richard Smith with the llanelli Star petition.

Nia Griffith MP, Keith Davies AM and Cllr Geoff Thomas have met with Chief Fire Officer Richard Smith to hand over the Llanelli Star petiton calling for ‘NO CUTS TO THE FIRE SERVICE’

Nia said, “The very idea of Llanelli which has the largest population in Carmarthenshire suffering cuts to the fire service is frightening and mustn’t happen. Retaining our current service could literally mean the difference between life and death.

The people of Llanelli demand and deserve an efficient and fast responding Fire Service.

“The Llanelli Star has led the way with this petition against life threatening cuts, which the people of Llanelli have supported en masse.”

Only 3 people were allowed in to hand over the petition to the Chief Fire Officer, so other members of the delegation, including the Llanelli Star reporter (not pictured) waited in reception.
